“We are confronted by Eskom once again. But this time we
have taken steps…We’ve put together a task team…which is working together to
come up with a proposal. A number of ideas have been put on the table to
determine a better path for Eskom. There is some glimmer of light at the end of
the tunnel in terms of what we have to do with Eskom...,” he said.

He continued: “We can safely say that Eskom is being handled
and we will eventually put its challenges aside.”

On Tuesday, Ramaphosa met with the Eskom Sustainability Task
Team at his official residence Mahlamba Ndlopfu in Tshwane.
